Vinkocide® CMI 1.5 +

Vinkocide® CMI 1.5 ++ is a formulation containing a mixture of 5-chloro-2-methyl-isothiazol-3-one and 2-methyl-2H-isothiazol-3-one (CMIT/MIT). This aqueous solution, with 1.5% CMIT/MIT, is magnesium and copper stabilized, meeting the highest purity standards to minimize impurities' impact on efficacy and toxicity. It effectively penetrates microorganism cells, preventing microbial adaptation by inactivating vital substrates and enzymes. With a broad antimicrobial spectrum and excellent long-term efficacy, it's suitable for various aqueous systems, including storage preservation, liquid-cooling systems, slimicides, and working fluid preservation.

Key Benefits
  • General Benefits: 
    • Ideal for use in aqueous and water miscible systems
    • Broad antimicrobial spectrum against bacteria, fungi and yeasts
    • Often effective where other preservatives fail
    • Free from formaldehyde, formaldehyde releasers, phenolics
    • Good chemical stability
    • Non-volatile
    • Excellent long-term efficacy
    • Belongs to the best evaluated broad-spectrum biocides
  • Vinkocide® CMI 1.5 + meets the highest purity standards. Impurities are often the cause of undesired side effects in terms of toxicological or technical properties. Also, the efficacy can be influenced by impurities. These are reduced to a minimum in VinkocideTM CMI 1.5 +.
  • Vinkocide® CMI 1.5 + penetrates the cells of microorganisms, reacts with vital parts of the cell and inactivates important substrates and enzymes necessary to normal cell function. These relatively unspecific reactions prevent the development of microbial adaptation.
  • Vinkocide® CMI 1.5 + prevents microbial deterioration of products and the resulting effects such as:
    • phase separation
    • odor build up
    • gas build up
    • changes in viscosity
    • build up of health threatening toxins
  • Vinkocide® CMI 1.5 + are effective against Legionella. Concentrations as low as 4 ppm lead to a significant reduction of Legionella pneumophila.

Product Applications
  • PT 6 - In-can preservatives: Products used for the preservation of manufactured products, other than foodstuffs or feeding stuffs, in containers by the control of microbial deterioration to ensure their shelf life.
  • PT 11 - Preservatives for liquid-cooling and processing systems: Products used for the preservation of water or other liquids used in cooling and processing systems by the control of harmful organisms such as microbes, algae and mussels.
  • PT 12 - Slimicides: Products used for the prevention or control of slime growth on materials, equipment and structures, used in industrial processes, e.g. on wood and paper pulp, porous sand strata in oil extraction.
  • PT 13 - Metalworking-fluids preservatives: Products used for the preservation of metalworking fluids by the control of microbial deterioration.
Application Notes
  • Under certain physico-chemical conditions the stability of CMIT/MIT can be limited. Therefore, we recommend testing the compatibility in individual formulations.
  • For special formulations it can be desirable to combine Vinkocide® CMI 1.5 + with further biocides. Depending on the individual demands Vinkocide® CMI 1.5 + can be combined with most commonly used biocides. It can be used in a pH range of 3 - 8.5. Temperatures above 40 - 50 °C should be avoided.
  • Vinkocide® CMI 1.5 + are corrosive to metals according to test UN C1 against aluminum, gray cast iron and steel.
  • These metals are not suitable materials except some approved high-grade steels. Such steels can be used for storage and transport.
  • Under normal use patterns concentrations (w/w) of 0.1 – 0.25 % are sufficient in most applications.
  • The recommended dosage for e.g. water-miscible cooling lubricants 0.05-0.094 %, however we recommend determining the optimum concentration by microbiological testing. Maximum recommended dose of 0.094% will have EUH208 classification - " May produce an allergic reaction" but no pictogram.
